I love having people over for cookouts and outdoor fun–our house is set up perfectly for it! But I do tend to go a little overboard with everything and then I end up running around like a crazy lady at the party and never really get to enjoy my efforts. I know I’m not the only one guilty of this, so I gathered up a bunch of my favorite ideas from around the web and put them all in one place!
I’m sharing some really easy ideas for the 4th of July–or any other patriotic holiday for that matter.
